Awesome Albums: Angel's Distress by satomi

Angels are lovely and mysterious beings, and today's featured awesome album certainly captured the essence of these celestial creatures and more.

For an interesting monochrome concept shoot, long-time community favorite satomi dressed her lovely model in white and angel wings, then set her against a totally black background to make her stand out and even seemingly float. For her gear of choice, she chose to work with the Diana F+ loaded with Ilford XP2. We are particularly impressed at how our fellow lomographer managed to skillfully utilize the signature dreamy look created by the Diana F+ to create a fantasy-themed photo series that is both ethereal and a teeny bit eerie.

While it has been two years since the community first marveled at the snaps above, we’re sure — and aren’t surprised — that this awesome album still gets a handful of likes and comments to this day!

The Awesome Albums series is exactly what it says on the tin — it’s a love letter of sorts from the Editors addressed to user-uploaded albums that had caught their eye and had inadvertently fallen in love with. Please understand though, they’re really just here to express their love and nothing more.
